| Reverse description | Crowned shield of France — a plain azure field sown with fleurs-de-lis — surmounted by a royal crown of France and flanked by symmetrical olive branches forming a laurel wreath open at the base. In the exergue beneath the shield, the Béarn provincial emblem of a cow is struck, denoting the Pau mint. The peripheral legend · SIT NOMEN DOMINI BENEDICTUM encircles the design, with the date 1769 incorporated into the legend at the base, the full phrase being a Scriptural motto meaning 'Blessed be the Name of the Lord.' |
